2023 Official Roster Build Thread - The Initial 53 / Practice Squad

[Formula 21]

Yeah but you know who got mentioned again snagging Herbert’s deep throws? Wilson.

Motto for OTAs and TC. "Impress me." And Pokey Wilson has. Did he have the best OTAs? He or QJ did IMO. And as a WR lover, I like that.

Pokey! I'm sticking to my observation. Guyton's seat is heating up.

Pokey is heating up the field while Guyton cools down the ice tub. way to early still ... but fun

[Formula 21]

Where's the CB?

WE have CBs, I'm not worries about them at all.

Michael Davis, Assante Samuel, JC Jackson, JA Sir Taylor. That's pretty solid when JC gets back. Not too many teams have more than 4 solid guys at CB, and some don't have 4.

Good...can we stash Guyton on the PS in case Pokey pokes thru to the final 53?

Pokey is, ah, pokey - 4.54 in the forty. What happened to all the "we need more speed at WR" talk? I get it, you're the guy that loves nicknames.

All this Pokey talk is making me crave raw fish....

Darius Davis = Speedy Gonzalez

Pokey Wilson = Slowpoke Rodriguez

Lee 'Hairpiece' Hamilton = Foghorn Leghorn ("I say, I say, light up those lines, son!")

Don Coryell = Sylvester the Cat ("Thufferin' thuckotash! That Lionel James can thscoot!")

[JPPT1974]

Love the Speedy Gonzalez and Slowpoke Rodriguez comments!

Pokey reached into the sky
To snare a Herbie missile
he swaggered back to huddle
with a smile and a whistle

the gray beards at the blue saloon
Weren’t rarin’ to ride his show
they sputtered in their sassafras
“I hear that pokey’s slow”

R u saying that with that 4.54 forty time, we'll now have to call him, ahem, "Slow Pokey"?

[Lefty2SLO]

At least he didn't say "Let's ride!" at the end.

I am not as certain he will leave now as I was before the added incentives. He is a smart business man and concerned about his brand and off the field ventures LA is a massive market for all of that. I think the Chargers will offer him the same money as other teams will next season and the market may play a role in him staying or leaving? (ie say Green Bay or Minnesota or a place like that may not be as lucrative for him overall. He did talk about non monetary collateral and compensation.

TG

He had better ball out . . . . . . . if he starts making 'business decisions' on the field tp prolong his career he won't have a job next year (a la JJ). No-one's going to want a 29(??) year old RB with questionable motivation.

Not bad, Dmac...or...

Pokey ran a foe-5-foe...
People say dat Pokey's slow
But on da field he can separate
And catch dat rock - so stop da hate...
